Whatever happened to all the #blockchain projects? Not the outright cryptoswindle type but all these ambitious and noble ideas to generate trust and accountability in #supplychain etc.
Maybe if people spent some time doing hype postmortems, the next hype wave would be less embarrassing? Building a sort of immunity against naive #technosolutionism
The cumulating decades of wasted tech potential may become something we'll deeply regret as the real problems we are facing keep pilling up.

PyPI Supply Chain Attack Uncovered: Colorama and Colorizr Name Confusion
A malicious package campaign targeting Python and NPM users on Windows and Linux has been discovered. The attack uses typo-squatting and name-confusion tactics against the popular colorama Python package and the similar colorizr JavaScript package. Multiple packages with risky payloads were uploaded to PyPI, using names similar to legitimate packages in both PyPI and NPM. The unusual tactic of using an NPM package name to attack PyPI users was observed. The payloads allow remote access, control of desktops and servers, and exfiltration of sensitive data. Windows payloads attempt to bypass antivirus protection. The campaign's sophistication suggests targeted adversarial activity, although attribution remains unclear.
